Astros Stumble Again, Lose, 13-6
The Oakland Athletics grabbed a win, 13-6, over the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park. Oakland designated hitter Sakae Kasahara belted 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 5. Corbin Schenn was the winner. Over 6.2 innings, he allowed 6 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 6 strikeouts. Houston has now lost 6 consecutive games.

Oakland used the bat of Al Hernandez to capture the win. The catcher jacked a grand slam home run in the top of the second inning to put the Athletics ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a dandy.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Kasahara.
